Last Saturday during my walk, in Lakewood, we saw that the street was soaked with water. Considering how many jackets, hats and gloves I had on, seeing running water made no sense. So I looked around and saw this scene. Item 1, broken and frozen pipe location, Item 2 the height of the stream of water that had been shooting into the air, Item 3 is the landing zone of the water. The water had saturated under the snow, and was flowing out into the street creating a giant pool that was slowly draining and freezing.The house is not lived in so I called our Public Works Director and about 10 minutes later we had someone shutting off the water. Not exactly CSI Round Lake, but a satisfying problem to solve.
